National Archives of Australia – School Holiday Program

Come and immerse yourself in history at the National Archives of Australia. Look at some original records from the collection and then undertake a fun craft project!

A remote Australian island, a lighthouse and carrier pigeons will combine in a fascinating story providing an insight into early 20th-century life in Australia.
